Budget > Utilities > Create Budget Data
This page is used to automatically transfer account codes and amounts from the Finance application to the Budget master file. This utility transfers balances and associated account codes from the Finance Original Budget (Estimated Revenues and Appropriations), Amended Budget (Estimated Revenue and Appropriations), and Actual Amount (Realized Revenue, Encumbrances and Expenditures) columns. The transfer can be from either the current or next accounting period amounts. Use this option when creating the Budget master table for the first time. Processing this selection multiple times does not create duplicate accounts, but does update existing budget balances and account codes being transferred from the Finance application to the Budget application.
NOTE: Records that exist in the Mass Change Account Codes, Mask Crosswalk option affect the accounts that are created or updated when using this option.
